"All we have in life, really, are people and moments. The portrait captures both simultaneously, and tells a story about the characters in our lives. It shows a person in a place and a time in which they will never be again; it stops the clock and says, 'Look at this person; she matters. This moment matters.' And whether that portrait is serious or the brief result of a cheesecake grin, we're a little closer to seeing the soul." ~ David duChemin
